Seattle Plumbing Basics

This small residential section of Ballard is ideal for people who love the vibe of northwest Seattle but want a slightly quieter place to call home.HistoryMuch like other nearby subdivisions like Loyal Heights and Sunset Hill, Whittier Heights was only moved into once the housing options in downtown Ballard had filled up. The biggest era for growth was 1920 through 1940, when most of the houses were built. In more recent years, some new homes have been built, leaving the neighborhood with a nice mix of the vintage and the modern.Who Lives Here?Stable Nuclears - Higher-income urban family.Middle-age couples with children, pulling in combined household incomes nearing six figures. Most own their own homes. Some have a college education and work in a variety of occupations, including management-level positions.Comfy Couples - Upper-class couples.Urban couples making a mid- to upper-scale household income. Most own their own homes. Some have a college education and work in a variety of occupations, including management-level positions.Makin' It Singles - Upper-scale urban singles.Pre-middle-age to middle-age singles with upper-scale incomes. May or may not own their own home. Most have college educations and are employed in mid-management professions.VibeWhittier Heights is an unassuming residential neighborhood, basking quietly in the glow of its bigger sister, Ballard. The streets here are in a straightforward grid pattern, which furthers the notion that it�s a no-frills, no-nonsense place to live. On the outer edges of the neighborhood there are some fun pockets of businesses that offer nice alternatives to the main drag in Ballard.Activities and AttractionsOne of the most charming places to explore in Whittier Heights is the area along 65th street at its southern border. This mini business district has a surprising variety of establishments, from dive bars like The Tin Hat to shoe shops (The Sneakery). Word has it that The Dray is a great place to watch soccer (I mean �football�) and sample some obscure beers. You can also get a tattoo at Slave to the Needle or check out Babalouise, the local salon. Further into the �heart� of Whittier are a few other gems. People are raving about Honore Bakery and their French-inspired goods. Delancey pizza also deserves a nod for its wood-fired and unique pies. Just get ready to wait in line at both of these places!

As the mother of two toddlers, I can tell you that life already has plenty of surprises in store on a daily basis . Although the kids give me great joy, I do have to admit they are a lot more challenging than I could have ever imagined. For the most part however, we have been able to get through this time with very few serious issues .

However, there was one time when I was preparing for a big birthday party for my oldest child, a precocious one who is very affectionate and yet always seems to find trouble . I had spent the entire week cooking and preparing everything for his birthday party to which we�d invited a lot of family members and of course, all his little friends.

The party was to begin at 2:00 PM on a Saturday so I got up really early to get all the decorations up before the guests arrived. With the party scheduled to start at two o� clock, I thought I had plenty of time to get everything ready when suddenly I heard a strange sound coming from the bathroom . I went down the hallway and found water on the floor and my little boy running out of the bathroom and down the hallway .

Needless to say, I found the toilet was completely clogged with water running all over the floor . While mopping up the floor was no problem, I found that I could not unclog the toilet to save my life. I knew I needed help and there was only one place to turn .

I called one that I had used in the past but was worried he wouldn�t arrive in time to fix the problem , especially since it was a Saturday, of all days to have this happen! I had called upon his services before, but I didn�t know if he could be there in time to save the party, especially on a Saturday . I should have realized I could count on him because he�d never let me down before, had a great reputation and did advertise himself as being available in emergencies.

The plumber was ringing my doorbell 20 minutes later. He�d brought his tools and as he entered the doorway he assured me he would take care of everything. I was so relieved. He went right to the bathroom and told me to just carry on with setting up for the party . My son was happy as well, even if he didn�t fully understand what was going on . All he knew is that I was feeling a lot better .

Fixing the Toilet

The plumber got busy fixing the toilet and afterwards explained to me what the problem was. Apparently, my little troublemaker decided to find out how much toilet paper he could cram down the toilet before he tried flushing it. He practically used up the entire roll before he tried flushing and it was all wadded up down in the drain so the toilet backed up.

He explained that when something like this happens, the first thing I should do is shut off the water valve to prevent any more overflowing from occurring . The water valve is right next to the toilet and is pretty easy to see and operate . I�ll have to remember that next time something like this happens, although I had a pretty long talk with my son so hopefully this will not occur again . The next step is to use the plunger to try to force the blockage through the drain so that it can be carried out into the sewage system . The water in the bowl is sufficient to apply enough force so that the blockage should be removed. . Once the toilet water has passed down the pipe then I could turn the water back on and try flushing it again . If the water in the bowl is passing through easily, then turn the water back on and try a proper flush to see if the blockage has been removed .

However, my son was much more thorough in his work so the plumber had to use a snake to free up the blockage . He was able to shove the snake down into the wad of toilet paper and push it through the pipe into the sewer system. Once that was completed, he turned the water valve back on and the toilet was fine .

It only took the plumber a few minutes to dislodge the blockage with the snake, so while he was there he inspected the toilet and discovered that the floating arm needed to be adjusted. I remember hearing what I thought was water running in the bathroom from time to time,.. But I was either too distracted or simply didn�t know enough to understand that something was actually wrong with the toilet itself .

He pointed out to me that the handle with the floating ball needed to be adjusted to prevent the water from running into the tank for no reason. Our water bill had gone up recently, so apparently this was why. I was really grateful that he found this problem and took care of the matter. And let me know how to fix it in the future if it should happen .

Thankfully the Plumber Saved the Party

I am so thankful to my plumber for saving the day by unclogging the toilet and taking care of another problem within a span of just 15 minutes. In addition, he was very nice and his services were quite reasonable for the cost . I hesitate to think what might have happened if the plumber was not able to arrive in time. As it turned out I was ready for the birthday party in plenty of time and not one of our partygoers had any idea of what we had been through earlier in the day.

I really didn�t think much about what a good plumber is worth until that morning . I really appreciate that he is willing to come out in an emergency on a day he�d probably rather be spending with his family.

Mary was pacing the carpeted floor of the living room. She was pacing back and forth on the carpeted living room floor bouncing him gently in her arms . . Mary hadn�t slept at all in the last 24 hours. .Her other son Daniel was four, sitting on the floor in front of the television, half watching a colorful and loud show for preschoolers, half of his attention put on banging two plastic Spider-Man toys together. Every few minutes Mary would duck down to gaze out the living room window, out towards the driveway .

Mary�s husband had gone in to work early, leaving before the Sun was fully up.Mary had been left to take care of the two kids. Once she got the kids up, she took them both downstairs to occupy themselves watching TV before going into the kitchen to cook breakfast .She hadn�t noticed the wet floor until she was walking across it in her bare feet.

The white tiles were soaked with a thin layer of freezing water.She quickly found the source, the cabinet under the sink was wet, and when she pulled it open she could see a small crack in the pipe there. Before she could do anything about it she had to feed the boys so she grabbed some donuts from the cupboard for them to share . Her first move had been to tip toe across the water and grab a pack of foil wrapped toaster pastries for her sons to share.She went to the fridge and made two glasses of chocolate milk in sippy cups and then gave her children their breakfast before hurrying to the phone and calling her husband at work.

He was buried under work and not real happy about being interrupted . When she told him about the burst pipe he wondered why she was bothering him, he wasn�t a plumber so he just told her to do what he said, �Why are you wasting time calling me? . Hang up and call a plumber!� he ordered .Then he hung up, and Mary was left to take care of the pipe.

She went into the living room and sat on the couch, watching as her two kids ate their breakfast and drank their milk. They were fighting over their game, with the younger one accusing his brother of cheating. Finally they let it go and focused on the cartoon being shown on TV .Mary had her phone in her hand and brought up the internet, where she googled plumbers in her area. She called one that looked good and they said they would send a plumber out immediately .

So this was the situation, Mary trying to soothe little Andy, pacing the living room from one end to the other .Finally he did, forty minutes after she had called.He drove a large white van, pulled it into the driveway, climbed out and headed for the front door . Mary opened the front door, welcoming him before he was fully out of the van .

�Hi, I�m Mary, thank you for coming�, she said as she greeted him on the front porch. �Hi, I�m Joe, glad you called�. .He was in his late thirties, tall and thin, wearing a large tool belt.

Mary welcomed him inside, setting Andy on the floor next to Stevie, and took Joe to the kitchen .She turned and set her youngest next to his brother, and then led Tim to the kitchen .�I mopped it up, but it keeps leaking,� she explained as she stopped in the doorway while Tim kept on, stepping through the new puddle.

�No problem,� he said as he bent and opened the cabinet door.He peered underneath the sink and nodded his head .�I�ll cut off the water, and then I can get this fixed up in no time.�

Mary was relieved that it didn�t seem like any big deal to the plumber .She didn�t know how hard it would be to fix the pipe, but it seemed like it wouldn�t be a big deal.

Tim turned off the water valve to the pipe, then stood at the sink and turned the faucet on so any water left in it would drain.Then he bent once more and ducked under the sink. He cleared all the cleaning products out from under the sink so he could clearly see the problem, drying the pipe with a rag he pulled out of his toolbox . By now the boys were standing over him eyeing all of his tools .Mary�s two sons stood in the doorway, watching the man work .They thought all of his tools hanging on his belt were neat.

The tub contained epoxy and with the putty knife Joe applied some to the pipe . He then wrapped the entire area of the crack with rubber .Next he wrapped the area with the crack in rubber, using two clamps to hold it tightly in place. Once the epoxy was dry, Joe used waterproof plumbing tape and wrapped it around the pipe, over the rubber, for additional protection . Once he was finished he got out from under the sink, turned the water back on and then turned on the faucet over the sink . He let the water run down the drain and with his flashlight bent under the sink to make sure there was no water spurting out of the repaired pipe . There was none, so he got up to see Mary trying to grab a wrench away from Stevie, who had obviously gotten into Joe�s toolbox .

�You�re all set,� he said.�It wasn�t a bad leak, so I didn�t need to cut out the pipe, I just patched it up.�

�Oh my gosh. You saved the day�, said Mary, going off to get her wallet .When she came back she was surprised to see Tim had taken the mop she had left against the wall and was mopping up the leaked water.�You don�t need to do that!� she said.

Joe just shrugged his shoulders saying, �I�m happy to help, you have your hands full as it is with the boys .�

After he was done Mary wrote him a check, and then gave him a cash tip from her purse. Tim told her it was unnecessary, but when she insisted he took it and thanked her.He bent and gave a high five to both of the boys, then her left, leaving a very relieved stay at home mom behind him.
